A rare opportunity--creek frontage property! This is the quaint, authentic log cabin, evocative of years gone by, that you've always dreamed of. It is in a stunning location offering 225' of a year-round creek surrounded by trees on a private road across from a rock cliff where big horn sheep frequent. Hours of hiking is just a mile up the road in the Mt. Evans Wilderness—an outdoor enthusiast's dream! Perfect for full-time living or as a weekend get-away. Escape from the city to your own retreat that is perched above the creek offering an amazing view of it and listen to the rushing water from the open picture windows that also overlook the creek. A tasteful and cozy home with so many special touches throughout, including, but not limited to, decorative stained glass accent windows, casement wood windows and the kitchen boast's a rare and beautiful operational antique wood cook stove in addition to the modern stove/oven. The focal point in the living room is the large stone fireplace with a wood stove insert for those chilly days and nights. Newer 5 yr old roof and wood vinyl plank flooring. Cabin is on well and septic, backup heat is baseboard electric, 2nd bdrm is a pass-through. Outside there is a back deck for leisure that overlooks the creek. Also included are a shed and an old one car garage that is more suitable for storage, all on 0.68 acres. The cabin, according to older records, was built in 1933 (with an updated year of 1968) by the Civilian Conservation Corps (who built the trails) and was added onto over the years. The warm summer air is here bringing with it the snowmelt filling the creek (pictures do not do it justice!). Now is the chance to get into this one-of-a-kind cabin and experience the unique essence of all four seasons, and just in time to enjoy the summer days and cool evenings.
